right femoral line placement s/l "7-year technique" - starstruck


Posted: May 15, 2010

"Via the s/l 7-year or salvington technique, I was able to place a right femoral central line after the third attempt."

I know it's Saturday night on a beautiful evening in May, but if anybody knows what this (no laughing!) PLEASE tell me! 

Could be Seldinger technique - Olive

Thank you Olive and bcmt! - starstruck

Thanks for making sense out of a horrible dictation. I was glad that at least I could hear the word "technique" because I thought someone here might know the *kind* of technique--I sure didn't. Cyberhugs to you both! And I hope the two of you never need to have a femoral central line access (especially not by this doc!)

You're welcome! It is a beautiful May night. - Olive

Seldinger technique . . . and I'm not laughing. I'm smiling, because I'm thrilled to have gotten here first with the answer! At least, I think I'm here first . . .

I'm glad you got here in whatever order! - starstruck

If I didn't have this board, I would go nuts! I just knew it was one of those things I *should* know because a central line placement is pretty common, but I really had no clue. And I thought that all of the other MTs were rolling their eyes and laughing! Hope you're enjoying the beautiful May night as well...

Questions On Your Technique
Jun 12, 2011

I am wondering what method you all use for transcribing.  Do you listen and type word for word, or do you listen to the complete thought before typing it?  Has anyone who was formally trained been taught a certain way?  Has anyone switched from technique to another and seen a difference one way or another?  I am continually trying to find ways to improve speed without a lot of success.  I am very frustrated and having difficulty paying my bills. Also, in case it co ...
